Let me start bye saying I have been testing my new setup with some swag beans. I have 9 clones in mid flower. 3 mostly Indica and 6 Sativas. I have been using Flora Nova at less half strength. I will give you my recipe at the end new and old. The reason I need to tweak this recipe is because buds are forming nicely but have been very slow. I would say that the clones have been in full flower mode for a month and should be further along than they are.
I have been using 2 oz of FloraNova one part Bloom to a 15 gallon Res. After thinking about the speed of Bud production I have decided to increase the solution to 4oz to 15 Gallons. Full strength would be 5oz to 15 gallons. My big question is will doubling the strength of the FloraNova going to be to radical a change for the plants. They are nice and healthy rite now just not growing as quickly as my gardens from 25 years ago?
Old flower solution recipe.
1 FloraNova 1 part Bloom 4-8-7 2oz per 15 gallons.
2 SM-90 wetting agent 45 ML per 15 gallons.
3 Berry Sweet organic Carbohydrate synthesizer 0-0-0 150 ML per 15 Gallons.
4 Fat Flower Bloom bloom enhancer 3/4 TSP per 15 gallons.
New flower solution recipe.
1 FloraNova 1 part Bloom 4-8-7 4oz per 15 gallons.
2 SM-90 wetting agent 45 ML per 15 gallons.
3 Berry Sweet organic Carbohydrate synthesizer 0-0-0 150 ML per 15 Gallons.
4 Fat Flower Bloom bloom enhancer 3/4 TSP per 15 gallons.
Again my real question is if I change to the new recipe a I making to radical change or should I be ok? I have already mixed the new solution. I am leaching my the plants with PH balanced clean water PH that is at 5.6.
So I have time for your input prior to making this solution change.
Thanks for any advice given in advance.
